Geras' moveset, or how I call him: Gyros. Fun fact, Geras is a "Gears" anagram for some reason. In Mortal Kombat 1, he's a good guy since he serves whoever controls the Hourglass and way less creepy. Like most characters, he was kompletely changed to use more time-base attacks. He's basically able to use all time mechanic we've ever seen in fighting games, from resetting himself to his previous position, to time stop, to repeating attacks and delaying attacks. When you uppercut a time-stopped opponent, he'll be launched into the air once the time-stop ends. Countdown (D, B X) has do be done three times or once when it's enhanced. Using the command again turns it into Inevitable, a full screen time stop. Unfortunately, there is no on-screen indicator how often Countdown has been used. History Lesson (D, F Triangle) and Follow-Up Exam (D, B Triangle) change their animation and increase in damage if Geras is cornered (History Lesson) or the opponent is cornered (Follow-Up Exam). Redo (B, F X) teleports Geras to his clone's position automatically or when he's hit. Double Time (B, F X+R2) has the clone copy Geras's inputs but the move feels broken, it doesn't really work... it seems you have to use an attack instantly after Double Time for the clone to copy it. It seems to be completely random if it works or not.
Fixed Point (D, B X+R) resets Geras' position (and HP!) from 3 seconds ago. Sandstorm throws the opponent either forward or backward depending on his or her position.
